Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. The Song of the Five Phoenixes () is a rare late-Ming to early-Qing Chinese novel attributed to Yunyangchichidaoren, now presented for the first time in a complete English translation by Valentin Saric.Set during the Jiajing era of the Ming dynasty, the novel opens in a world shaped by moral philosophy, righteous conduct, and the fragile balance between personal virtue and social duty. Through refined prose, poetry, and episodic storytelling, The Song of the Five Phoenixes explores themes of loyalty, integrity, friendship, and ethical responsibility amid political upheaval and personal trials.Unlike later vernacular novels driven primarily by spectacle or fantasy, this work belongs to an earlier literary tradition where moral cultivation, scholarly ideals, and poetic expression stand at the center. Its phoenix symbolism evokes harmony, cultivated talent, and moral excellence - ideals deeply embedded in classical Chinese thought.This edition preserves the structure and spirit of the original Chinese text while rendering it into clear, faithful English, making the work accessible to modern readers without sacrificing its historical voice.This volume is intended for: - Readers of classical and early modern Chinese literature- Scholars and students of Ming-Qing fiction- Fans of historical novels rooted in Confucian ethics- Readers seeking authoritative first English translations of rare textsFeatures of this edition: - First complete English translation- Faithful rendering of prose and poetry- Historical and cultural sensitivity to the original context- Clean, readable English without abridgementA long-hidden voice from China's literary past, The Song of the Five Phoenixes now speaks clearly to the English-speaking world.
